maybe I can hide it from my wife under the rug.

Killifish are going to be hatched on the 18th of this month. Hope I get a good hatch.

I'm on a side project this week at nights but plan an update of my tanks this weekend

I started the bowl off with 1" 1/2" gravel, a small water sprite sitting under a clay fert tab. small piece of drft wood and 12w CFL lamp 8hr PP.

That's it Im being optimistic but im hoping it all works out. How do you think it'll go any quick suggestions?

20 long actually, and for the glass top I used a skinny flat head screwdriver and just pulled.

My badis are awesome, so glad I held out and waited to order these. As they are in my first high tech tank I'm glad they weren't in there in the beginning. I threw a few guppies in there first and almost gassed them at 4 or 5 bps

We are down two 2.5 bps
